They'd lurch down the corridor towards the jakes -
There'd be dangerous laughter in the bar -
Smoke curling against the yellow ceiling -
Spilled ale glistening on the floorboards -
There were photographs of lean jockeys -
Monstrous pikes would glower at tawny girls -
The stairs led to a warren of low ceilinged rooms -
The moon netted in cobwebs -
The stars caught in a broken window -
